Audio drivers broken after Windows update

I think, and this needs to be be confirmed, that I saw somewhere that the WU carrying the Intel update has been ..... either paused or pulled.

It has been one H3!! of a week. They really have to slow this down. 1809 not ready for prime time, 1809 CU updates causing boot issues with HP's (and Dell ??) devices, Intel driver stepping on others. They need a different approach to release and fire fight.

Oh well, backup and then backup again.

I’ve heard 1809 didn’t go to the pre-release group of insiders but was released directly from the slow ring, I don’t know if that or something similar is true but it would explain why these bugs weren’t caught before release.

Yes it did bypass the final insider stage but you have to wonder how Intel got caught so far out. Are they not part of the testing for their drivers and the CU crippling HP's. Was the error it was supposed to correct not identified in Fast or slow.

They will implement new processes and procedures to prevent a re-occurrence and in two years someone will say, we don't need that step.

Remember 1607 killing web cams.

Ken I just got it fixed. My daughter-in-law had the same issue - we bought our computers at the same time. I almost had it when I first was trying to fix it, but i got a message that what i was doing may not be safe so I quit when I should have continued and save myself hours of stress!

I sincerely hope that MS don’t skip the final insider stage again.

Oh yes.

Glad you got it sorted. If you have the time could you say what you did. Lots of sound issues these days and solution help everyone.

Thanks

Thanks for the help from all of you guys. The sound is now working fine. I tried to scan my pc for drivers but the issue still remained.

What fixed it was going into HP's drivers website and downloading the sound drivers for my laptop (Omen 15 ce005np) and installing them.
One minor issue is that the little sound controller doesnt pop up in the task bar -> http://prntscr.com/l5frsn but it isnt that much of a problem since I can control the volume from the FN keys.

By the way I am still on 1803 and not on 1809 so the issue didnt come from that.

Sorry for the trouble and thanks again for being cooperative.

There was an update with Conexant in the title after 1803 had been installed. After that install session a message appeared relaying that MS Windows 10 decided that this particular addition was not good for the Acer V5-551 (orig Win8.1) laptop so...

I noticed that 1703 uses High Definition Audio 10.0.15063.502 (27.07.2017). Sound works flawless to my AV/TV.
With 1709 audio cuts out all the time. Its using 10.0.16299.15 (28.09.2017).
Is there anywhere I can find that older driver so I...
